There have been a ton of family friendly holiday events happening lately and this weekend is no exception.

A holiday themed family movie night, a winter festival and a story time event featuring everyone’s favorite Christmas villain are some of the activities to choose from this weekend.

Family Movie Night in the Park: The fate of Sailfish Ball Park in East Stuart is up in the air, so enjoy it while you can. From 6-9 p.m. Friday the City of Stuart will host a free holiday movie night with hot cocoa, arts and crafts and, of course, popcorn. Bring a blanket or lawn chairs and join the police chief for an evening of family fun. Crafts and hot cocoa will begin at 6 p.m., followed by a showing of “Arthur Christmas.” Sailfish Ball Park is at 600 S.E. Georgia Avenue in Stuart.

Winter Fest: Indian Riverside Park in Jensen Beach will be transformed into a Florida- style winter wonderland on 3-8 p.m. Dec. 15 . Entertainment will include a DJ, local school choirs, bands and dance teams, along with games, face painting, arts and crafts, Home Depot’s Kids Workshop and more.

Vendors and food trucks will be onsite and rumor has it that the jolly man in red will make an appearance. The event is free, but attendees are encouraged to bring a new unwrapped toy to be donated to Toys for Tots.

Grinchmas Storytime: Those looking for a quieter event for little ones can enjoy a Grinch-themed story time and event 2-4 p.m. Saturday at Barnes & Noble at 3001 N.W. Federal Highway in Jensen Beach. Get into the holiday spirit Dr. Seuss-style with stories, games, photo opportunities and more. Adults can get in on the fun with an Ugliest Christmas Sweater Challenge.
